I realized today my brothers Photon battery fits in my Droid 3
the photon battery s 1700MAH opposed to the Droid 3's 1500 maH
it powers up just fine.
Is this safe, and itll probably give better lifetime right?
what else should i look at to make sure nothing is being lost, voltage?
Has anyone tried / can try the atrix 1900 battery in the droid 3 to see if it fits
gsmarena lists the droid 3 as 'Lithium Ion'
and the photon as: 'Li-Po'
what gives?
It is not soo much a matter as if it fits but a matter if the volts and amps are all the same also the connections on the battery
Ion/Polimer that's all I know about the two

connections clearly are the same since it fits and phone booted and is working 100%
So long as the battery puts out between 3.5 and 4.2v and the connector has the same pinout it will work just fine, the battery has a little controller in it to manage its charge levels and what not.
I can also confirm that the Defy's battery also fits into the Droid3. So if any of you have a friend who has a Defy steal their battery . JK don't do that.

I just picked up a like new D4 to play with along side my RAZR MAXX and i gotta say im getting the same battery life on the D4 as my RAZR MAXX.
Im like WHOA no way 17 Hrs of medium use on the D4 and 17.5hrs of medium use on the RAZR MAXX.
I guess its the screen on the D4 that does not draw that much power? I am very happy with the phone and i put the MAXX up on ebay!
How are your battery results?
17 hours moderate use sounds about right... but your RAZR battery life sounds way too short.

There is something eating your RAZR battery life prematurely. 17.5 on D4 is great. On RAZR MAXX that is somewhat poor.
My Wife's D4 can go most of a day without a charge. My RAZR MAXX can go two days without a charge.
I must be doing something wrong then cuz I'm lucky to get through the day without plugging my D4 in. :-(

When I installed the Swiftkey 3 beta, my battery life went WAY down. Even though it never showed up in the battery stats (not sure why). Uninstalled, problem gone...
I was very impressed with the D4's battery life, as I thought it would suck after reading reviews. I've been impressed with consistently getting >14hrs on my normal usage, and I used it as hard as I possibly could the other day (wifi tether, games, lots of browsing, all while on 4G) and got 11hrs. My OG Droid barely got 10 hrs with light use.

Yea, the OG Droid had terrible battery life. The thing that saved the OG Droid was that the battery was removable, and you could get OEM batteries for ~ $3 online. I had three
A lot of this depends on what you consider use. For example, I have read an eBook on my D4 for 3 hours and lost less than 10% of the battery. I can tether for about 2 hours, but that's pretty battery intensive. The D4 tends to do better than the MAXX when it comes to a lot of screen time, because the pentile display is more energy efficient.
Hi there,
I am looking to extend the battery life on my Moto X and have come across the Zerolemon battery cases. They don't mention the Moto X on their website but I thought people on XDA might know if they are releasing one soon?
Thanks
Anyone know? :crying: My battery life is not good at all right now!
Read the entire "how's your battery life" thread. Every sort of battery help can be found there....just gotta read up. No one should have bad battery life on the Moto x...just need to fix issues sometimes.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago for my Bionic, just to use as an alarm clock, since I have moved on to a Moto X on Republic Wireless. This is a really nice dock....solid feeling, and is adjustable for different Motorola phones that have the same ports, so I could slide the plugs so the Bionic is perfectly centered in it. And it comes with an HDMI cable, too. $8.95 shipped.
